671 Anger
Seeing Ralph's miserable laughter, Nadette looked at Assh with an inquiring gaze, who was expressionless, but turned away from him.
What does this mean is already obvious...... Nadette couldn't help but press his head, which was already starting to swell.
After taking a few deep breaths and calming down, Nadette asked, "Since your eldest daughter is missing, why don't you ask me for help?" Besides, your daughter is missing, not necessarily Lux's doing. ”
"Did Lux do it, and after that kind of thing, there is more to think about? How dare I ask you for help? Ralph laughed twice, looking at the expression of the city lord, as if looking at an idiot: "I just reported a few words to you casually, my eldest daughter is gone, if I reflect this to you again, shouldn't a few members of my family disappear?" ”
At the end, Ralph lowered his voice, his eyes tingling with blue, like a wounded beast roaring at his enemies.
Ralph sighed, knowing he had asked a stupid question.
"Treat him, then let him go, and don't let him appear in Echo City in the future." After thinking about it for a long time, Nadette said this.
Assh immediately dragged Ralph away.
But Ralph's voice still came from outside: "City Lord, you are a good person, forget your vicious woman, and have another one with other women, otherwise one day, she will harm ......"
Nadette let out a long breath and leaned back in his chair. Heavy fatigue was on him, and he had never felt so tired and hard when he was a child, even when his life was in danger.
There is nothing that strikes a father harder than when his children have made a big mistake or have been deceived by their children.
Lux took both.
In the past, Nadette always thought that although her daughter was very arrogant, she was still good in nature, at least she would not kill people casually. But now...... Everything proves one thing, he was deceived, he was deceived by his own daughter.
Her own daughter is a demon, although she doesn't have any strength, but as her own daughter, no one dares to judge her, and no one in Echo City dares to disobey her, so ...... Here comes the arbiter of heresy, and so does the paladins.
Nadette was tempted to confront Lux now why she was doing these things, and even wanted to beat her half to death...... But he was only half-dead, his daughter, Nadette did not want her to die, he felt that from now on, as long as he educated her well, he should be able to bring her back to the right path.
Thinking of saving his daughter, Nadette thought of the information sent by Heidi, according to which Cook suspected that the arbiter of heresy and the paladin had a mole behind him.
Nadette also faintly felt the same way. Echo City is his territory, and now there are a few outsiders staying inside, but he can't find out any news, if it weren't for Cook and they came back, they wouldn't even know where the enemy was.
Although she knew where her daughter was now, Nadette was not in a hurry to save her, the holy warrior had good credit, and she said that if she kept her daughter's life for the time being, she would keep it for the time being. The most important thing now is to figure out the situation in the city, and at the same time mobilize troops and prepare for the rescue arrangement.
The more prepared you are, the better your chances of rescuing Lux.
Nadette closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then left for the barracks.
Beta and Heidi return to the hotel, and after rejecting the waiter's request if they want a late-night snack, Beta sits down in her chair and sighs comfortably.
Although his strength is very strong, and his physical attributes are quite high, in the past ten days, he has either been monitoring in Ellen City, or killing people, and he has to think about many things after he comes back, and even has to run to the stinking sewers in the middle of the night to find someone. Even if you are not physically tired, you are still mentally tired.
There seems to be some foul smell on his body...... Take a shower.
As Beta thought this, she opened her eyes and was surprised to find that Heidi had already found her body and undressed herself.
"What are you doing here?" Beta was a little surprised.
"Take a shower." The sound of course.
"You're not going to go back to your room to wash?"
"Insecure, what if another man breaks in?"
By the time she said this, Heidi had already stripped herself of herself, and she faced Beta, and continued without any twist, "Besides, you are not interested in my body, so it makes no difference to you whether I wear clothes or not. ”
Wrong...... There is a big difference.
Heidi is also a very beautiful person, and there are few female professionals who are ugly. Her figure and skin type, although not as good as the city lord's wife Catherine, can also play eighty points, Beta is a normal man, so he still thinks this Heidi is quite attractive.
He didn't look away, but smiled bitterly: "In case I can't help but be beastial......"
"That's what I earned, too." Heidi chuckled, and with her movements, the two clumps of jelly in front of her shook slightly, and the cherries reflected a faint light under the oil lamp: "After all, I'm thirty years old, and you're only in your early twenties." ”
Beta shrugged helplessly, then closed her eyes.
Looking at Beta's helpless appearance, Heidi smiled softly and entered the bathroom, and after a while, she poked her head out of it again and whispered: "The waiter has not prepared much water for here, and if I finish washing, you will have no water." Or...... Let's wash together? ”
"The two of them wash together, I'm afraid that the more I wash, the more greasy it will become."
"Haha." Heidi smiled happily: "I don't mind. ”
"But I think Nadette will."
"How would he know if you don't say it?" Heidi looked at Beta with disdain: "Could it be that you have the habit of taking advantage of other people's women and like to run in front of others to make a big splash?" ”
Beta wanted to remind Heidi that the person she loved was the lord of the city, but it turned out that Heidi didn't care about these things at all. And this time Beta didn't feel Heidi's temptation, not like the last few times, but more like a good friend or confidant.
She smiled even more when she saw that Beta was swallowed by herself, and she retreated into the bathroom, just gently closed the door, and took a shower inside.
The sound of the rushing water sounded for more than ten minutes, and then Heidi stepped out, her smooth body steaming, and she did not avoid Beta, drying herself in front of the latter, and then putting on her clothes.
Moaning comfortably, Heidi sat down across from the beta as she got dressed.
"You've been looking at me just now!"
"Hmm."
"You're not afraid of being known to Nadette now?"
"How would he know if you don't say it?" Beta used Heidi's words to gag her.
"Hahaha." Heidi leaned back with a smile, and after a moment she calmed down and said, "You are the strangest magician and nobleman I have ever met. ”
Beta ignored her and continued to close her eyes and rest.
Heidi didn't care, said that I was tired too, and then with a smile, twisted his waist and went back to his room.
After resting for three hours, the two came to the northern suburbs near the sewers again.
There are many dense groves here, which bring great convenience to the hiding and surveillance of Beta and Heidi.
Not long after they were lurking nearby, three men in gray robes opened the lid of the sewer and went inside, coming out about an hour later.
"Now it's certain that there is indeed a mole in Echo City." Beta sat on the thick branch and whispered, "I don't know how the investigation is going on on Nadette's side?" ”
"Don't worry, Nadette will find out the ghost inside."
In fact, Nadette now knew who the inner ghost was, and he roughly knew who was helping the heretical arbiters.
After all, their family has been in charge of Echo City for hundreds of years, and they usually don't have much of a strong underground force except for the army, but once something big happens, these forces lurking in the shadows will emerge.
Judd was training his army in the barracks when he suddenly received news that the lord of the city had an urgent matter to see him.
He stood still, calmed down, and walked with a rather calm posture to the top of the barracks, where the non-war headquarters was located.
When he reached the top floor, he found that it was the same as before, and whenever the lord of the castle appeared, there were several guards guarding the door.
He pushed the door open and entered, his face suddenly pale.
Nadette sat in the handsome seat, and on the left and right sides of the room, there were a row of heavily armed guards, and Sensen's murderous aura permeated the air.
"Judd, you're pretty good." Nadette looked at him with some puzzlement in his tone: "You turned out to be a civilian, I brought you into the army, I turned you into a qualified soldier, and then taught you to be an excellent officer, I don't understand, why did you betray me." Are you, like Ralph, have unspeakable secrets? ”
Judd's face was still pale, and he lowered his head and didn't speak.
"I asked you to lead a search of the city, but you disobeyed. Are you waiting for me to die so I can take over my position as lord of the city? ”
Judd still didn't speak, he had nothing to say, because Nadette was right.
He was indeed waiting, waiting for the promise of those people, the lord of the city died unexpectedly, and then he was put into the position of lord by others.
Therefore, he deliberately did not make any efforts, and deliberately ordered the soldiers to do nothing, so as to put Nadette in a more dangerous situation.
He just didn't expect that he would be exposed so quickly.
"Assh, you go and inform the whole army that Judd has been relieved of his duties, and now I am personally in charge of the army."
Assh nodded and left.
Naturt continued to look at Judd, his voice was a little sad: "You are not like Ralph, he betrayed me for excusation, you were personally promoted by me, your betrayal means that I have no eyes for people, and it means that the children of commoners and nobles are equally untrustworthy." It is also a young man, and it is far more difficult to train a civilian officer than to train a noble officer, because you don't even know the words at first. So in three days, I will judge you in front of the whole city, and tell the people of the city that because of you, I no longer trust the civilians, and the officers of Echo City will never be promoted from among the civilians again. ”
Judd's face was just pale just now, and now his whole body trembled, and Nadette's words were heart-wrenching.
